Measuring and Installing a Mountain Bike Chain

1. Thanks, but why only mention "8, 9, or 10 speed?" What about 7-speed?
   
   Also, the master link on my new chain does not want to click into position anywhere near as easily as the one shown here; the pins don't want to slide into the outer position. What's the recommended way to pry them outward without damaging the chain?
   
   As far as the measuring method is concerned: I had already shortened my chain to match the original. When I tried the method shown here (wrapped around the two largest sprockets), it looked like this method would've given me the exact same length. So... good!
2. Трансмиссия грязная, у тросика наконечника нет ... странно, что цепь решил такой хозян сменить :)))
3. Mmm, frayed cable, no crimp. Not good.
4. Good video, it enabled me to change my broken chain and fit a new one.Thanks
5. Thank you, very good video!
6. Why does the chain need to be so short? My bike came stock with a long chain and the rear derailleur, when on the largest sprocket, is pointing down and not in a crazy angle towards the front of the bike. If the derailleur has space to move, what does it matter how long the chain is?
   
   In essence, I'm getting a new chain and if I shorten it too much, I will shoot myself.
7. song name please?
8. I'm new to this but as with previous comments I would suggest running it through the rear derailleur. I followed this video and my chain came up too short.
9. Nice video, thanks for posting...really simple information I was looking for!
10. This is bullshit.
11. i dont like your dirty hands. why dont u use gloves?
12. Very detailed 
13. The way i was taught was to path the chain over the large chainrings and through the rear derailleur then using a carpenters angle tool set the cage to a 45deg angle, you really need someone to hold the angle tool. It's worked for me and i get no chain slap and gear changes seem sharp.
14. You don't need to put a new chain on before every race and tbh i don't know of anyone who does for road or offroad.
15. is the measuring technique (2 links + the master link) the same for a road bike chain?
16. Thank you .Your a professional .You've don this 1 million times.For  for us non professional .this is still going to be tough ,since we don't do this often ,thanks
17. thank u!
18. Does the process differ for a full suspension bike, as opposed to a hard-tail ??  will Suspension movement affect the length of chain, depending on how the rear end moves?
19. i bought a chain and did everythihg the video said. But the master link never snap to place.  
20. Wow, keep a shop towel handy so you don't get the new parts dirty.  When you find that towel clean the rest of the dirty drivetrain up before putting the chain on.
